https://eji.org/news/alabama-refuses-compensation-to-anthony-ray-hinton-innocent-man-who-spent-30-years-death-row
Since Anthony Ray Hinton was exonerated and released from death row over two years ago, Alabama lawmakers have not only refused to compensate him for the three decades he spent on death row for a crime he did not commit, but also passed legislation changing the appeals process in death penalty cases so that innocent people like Mr. Hinton now face an even greater risk of being executed. --- kin to all that throbs ...

So Alabama saw an innocent man get released from death row and figured the problem was he wasn't killed before he was released.

No reason prisoners should be given compensation by the government for wrongful convictions unless the prosecutor or police actually did something fraudulent/illegal to taint the case.

If the government presents a fair case, The Supreme Court has ruled that his trial was not fair, given the deep flaws with his defense https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/04/03/how-the-case-against-anthony-hinton-on-death-row-for-30-years-unraveled/?utm_term=.0809e74972c8 Hinton’s breakthrough came last year when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously that his constitutional right to a fair trial had been violated. The high court overturned his conviction after finding that Hinton’s defense attorney at the time had hired an “expert” witness — a trained civil engineer Andrew Payne Jr. — whom the attorney viewed as “inadequate” because he didn’t think he was allowed to spend more than $1,000 to hire a more qualified one. thelovefist posted... www.eji.org seems like a completely fair and unbiased source.

I think he should be given compensation. If an innocent person goes to jail, then there was a problem with the criminal justice system that took away a huge part of that person's life. It may not have been intentional, that innocent person still had their life turned upside down. And it's one thing that I'm comfortable with my tax dollars going towards.

Admiral is saying that if there wasn't any intentional wrong doing in the trial, no reperations should be made. I guess I see what he's saying, but I don't agree with that. I guess it depends on how you view the govt role in an issue like this

Hinton also was charged related to the July 26, 1985 shooting of Quincy's night manager Sid Smotherman Jr., who was shot in the head and hand in a robbery at the Bessemer restaurant. Smotherman survived and testified at Hinton's trial that he was driving home after work when Hinton bumped his car, and when he got out to check for damage Hinton forced him at gunpoint to drive back to the restaurant. This was the only credible evidence against him for at least one of the robberies. The witness could be a white guy and therefore may have had some trouble identifying black suspects. The other "evidence" was ballistics, which is often shaky forensics, as it was in this case. The state should be held accountable for employing such "evidence" to obtain a conviction. A lot of this "forensic" stuff has not been subjected to peer review in scientific journals. ... Copied to Clipboard!
